Tony Khan makes a huge prediction ahead of title match on AEW Dynamite: "She wants payback"

A massive title match is set to take place on AEW Dynamite. Ahead of this match, Tony Khan has made a huge prediction.

Kris Statlander shocked the world at AEW All Out when she pinned Toni Storm to become the new Women's World Champion. She also became the first woman to win the TBS and Women's World Championship. Now, Statlander is already set to defend her title against Mina Shirakawa on Dynamite. This will be a personal match for Shirakawa, who is a close friend of Toni Storm.

During a recent interview with The Sportster, Tony Khan stated that Toni Storm may have bitten off more than she could chew heading into All Out. He also predicted that Mina Shirakawa would be looking to get payback for Toni.

"Kris Statlander took that championship by surprise from Timeless Toni Storm, who had maybe bitten off for the first time more than Timeless Toni Storm could chew, as Timeless Toni Storm was such a great champion for over seven months, defending the title against all comers, and finally, she tried to take on three top challengers in one night. It cost her. I think Mina Shirakawa, the person who's closest to Timeless Toni Storm, everybody in the world really wants that title. She wants payback for Toni, too." [H/T The Sportster]

Tony Khan opened up about another huge match set to take place on AEW Dynamite

After his match at All Out, Mark Briscoe challenged The Don Callis Family to a six-man tag team match. He revealed that he will team up with Hologram and another member of The Conglomeration to face Kazuchika Okada, Konosuke Takeshita, and Hechicero. Since then, fans have speculated that the third member of The Conglomeration is going to be Orange Cassidy.

During the same interview, Tony Khan said that fans have a pretty good idea regarding who will be the third member of Mark Briscoe's team, and he is excited for this bout.

“I don’t think they’ve left that much mystery to it the way that the phone call went with The Conglomeration. I think the fans have a pretty good sense of who it’s going to be, and I think it’s really great. I’m excited for this match to have The Conglomeration going against that great trio of Okada, Takeshita, and Hechicero.”

It will be interesting to see if Kris Statlander will enjoy a successful first title defense.

According to him, The Tribal Chief needed the victory more than Brock Lesnar, as the latter was already an established performer when he defeated ‘Taker.
